In the construction industry, the high fatality rate can be avoided or reduced by taking the OSHA 30 hour construction course. The 30 hour OSHA training for the construction industry is a safety measure devised for foremen, field supervisors and directors.

Through this program, workers can attend 10-hour or 30-hour classes delivered by OSHA-authorized trainers. The 10-hour class is intended for entry level workers, while the 30-hour class is more appropriate for supervisors or workers with some safety responsibility. Through this training, OSHA helps to ensure that workers are more knowledgeable about workplace hazards and their rights, and contribute to our nation's productivity.
